Sepedi Home Language - Term 3 - Week 10

Guided reading is a teaching approach where the teacher supports students in reading a text. This week, we will read a short story in Sepedi. We will discuss the characters, setting, and events. It is important to listen carefully and think about what we read so we can understand the story better.

Let's read a short story together. The story is about a boy named Thabo who loves to play outside. As we read, I will ask questions like, 'What does Thabo like to do?' and 'Where does he play?' This will help us think about the story and understand it better.

After reading the story, we will have a group discussion. I will ask you to share your thoughts about Thabo's adventures. What did you like about the story? Can you tell me what happened at the end? This will help you practice speaking in Sepedi and expressing your ideas.

Now, I want you to write three sentences about what Thabo did in the story. Remember to use capital letters at the beginning of each sentence and a full stop at the end. You can also draw a picture of Thabo playing outside. This will help you practice your writing skills.
